Answer: True

Explanation:

Marginal externality is constant. However, it may not be calculated with accuracy. Hence, there's need for estimates at reasonable levels.

Hence, the policymaker's estimate of $35/ unit is reasonable and within the acceptable range of between $10 and $50/unit. Also, the tax charge raises social welfare compared to no tax at all.

Suppose you started a new all-equity financed company that is expected to generate an ROE of 15% indefinitely. The current book
Luda [366]

Answer:

The value of the stock at start-up = $67.5

Explanation:

According to the dividend valuation model , the current price of a stock is the present value of the expected future dividends discounted at the required rate of return  

This principle can be applied as follows:  

The value of stock today is the present value of the future return discounted at the required rate of return

The return can be computed as the ROE × Book value of share

Return = 15%× 30 =4.5

Price of stock today = D× (1+g)/r-g

D= current return, g- growth rate, r-required rate of return

DATA: D= 4.5, g= 5%, r= 12%

PV  = 4.5× (1.05)/(0.12-0.05)

= 67.5

The value of the stock at start-up = $67.5

pshichka [43]
  1. It should be noted that the failure to vaccinate some children isn an external cost. [See the attached graph]
  2. The social cost curve is also indicated accordingly.
  3. From an efficiency perspective, subsidizing vaccines <em>does</em> make sense because, without the subsidy, the equilibrium quantity is <em>less</em> than the socially optimal quantity.
  4. The school nurse suggests publishing a list of which kids did not get a flu vaccine, in the hope that public shaming will lead people to vaccinate their children. The school nurse is hoping that social norms will act like a <em>punishment  </em>and lead the market to a<em> socially efficient </em>
  5. The flaws that the school nurse's suggestion have are:
  • People that feel passionate about not vaccinating are typically doing so for medical or religious reasons and will not sway to social norms or peer pressure. (Option B)

  • The school would potentially face a lawsuit because sharing protected health information (PHI), like immunization records, without parents' consent could be a violation depending on the regulations of the state. (Option C)

<h3>What is social Cost?</h3>

In neoclassical economics, the social cost is the total of the transaction's private costs plus the costs imposed on consumers as a result of being exposed to the process for which they are not rewarded or taxed.

In other words, it is the total of internal and external expenses.

liberstina [14]

A test balance is used to detect any calculation error that may have occurred within the accounting system. For this, it is sought to verify if the total debits and the total credits are equal, for this the balance of all accounting books is compiled in column totals of both debit and credit. A company usually prepares a trial balance periodically, usually at the end of each reporting period.

In this case, to carry out the trial balance, you must first clarify the name of the company, the title of the trial balance and the date on which the trial balance is prepared, then proceed to list the ledger accounts and enter the debit and credit balances in the respective columns, then the columns are totalized and finally it is verified that the credit totals are equal to the debit totals

Answer

The correct order of the steps is (3), (2), (4) and (1)
